By God’s grace and the perseverance of His servants, last month, the KING of GLORY movie reached the finish line in 5 new languages: Serbian, Egyptian Arabic, Filipino, Bislama, and Burmese. Due to a variety of setbacks, 4 of these 5 languages each took more than 5 years to produce. Psalm 47:2 reminds us: “The LORD Most High is awesome; He is a great King over all the earth.” How comforting to know that amid the world’s evil and chaos, our God is OVER all and is personally at work IN people’s lives. Last month, a ministry partner (whose wife is Ukrainian – pray for her people!) reported from Central Asia: The mess of the withdrawal of forces in Afghanistan has taken an awful toll, yet amid the bloodshed, terrorism, pain and loss, God is being glorified by many coming to faith in Him. He goes on to tell of opportunities to share God’s good news with 600 refugee Afghan students and their teachers, and to provide them with Bibles, ROCK’s resources in their heart languages, and thousands of school supplies in the name and love of Jesus Christ. He also wrote: I met with the Afghani Consul General again today. The meeting was good. He read “Your Story” and asked me for a handful to share with others! He said it answered questions he had always wondered about and did it in a very clear and organized way. He has also been reading the Bible I gave him. He said, “I read that you are to love God with all your person and your neighbor as yourself. Your team are the only true followers of Jesus I have ever met, and I know this because I see you obeying these two commands.” Pray for transformed lives.

Amid some significant projects being continued and launched in both Senegal and Niger, we share this report from the New Hope Girls’ School in Tanzania: Our dear brother and project manager is working on the school registration process. Please join us in praying that this process will go smoothly with as few setbacks as possible. For the school to be approved to open, the government requires a certain number of classrooms, labs, and dorms available not only for the first class, but for the next class of students that would join the following year. So far, we are in good shape for the first class, but we have learned that we need to build at least one more dorm and have two more classrooms “in progress” before we can be approved. Please pray.
